62NY, Lockport Cambria, Smith Farms is in Cambria NY, in Niagara County, near Niagara Falls and Lake Onatario. This is a privately owned active grass strip located on the farm, a vineyard, just below the Niagara Escarpment. This is the former home of Niagara Soaring club, now disbanded, however gliders are still active here.
***** Please remove all previous version if you have downloaded in the past. Microsoft added this airport in the last US world update causing some strange issues with my previous versions. I ended up stating from scratch. *****
This is my first attempt at blender, and MSFS SDK I’m still learning so it’s not perfect. The grapes appear to be having some texture issues, and there may be others
All buildings were constructed from satellite imagery and best guessing. I plan on working on this project further as I have time.
A few objects from the Germany world update were used
Comments, info about the airstrip or any tips are welcome!!
Edit: Good stuff with the rework of texture 😊
It is a nice airfields but unfortunately is very badly optimized, it is 700mb on disk, nearly as much as Gatwick here on the .to
I looked at your texture folder you have a normal map for a door taking 22mb of space, also see texture were not baked which may add an extra layer of study (it is rather easy so let me know if you need help) however saves more than 80% of disk space.
Perhaps look into sizing down your texture both for performance and disk usage for a single grass strip 😊

Thanks... I'm new model design, and defiantly struggling with the texture part, is there generally a texture resolution to aim for? What do you mean by the textures were not "baked"? Thanks for the help!!

Thanks for the upload.
When opening the zip file should we create a folder called
"62NY" for example, and drag your files into that folder then place in community folder. Thanks

Best in a folder called "petesports-airport-62ny-lockport" I'm working on some changes to the vineyard area right now to hopefully have less of an FPS impact and will re zip it correctly after its done.
